Re: what is better than dayton rs 3-way set? for same $

i guess partly i was thinking 3-way because the door location isn't my favorite for imaging in this car (like right below my knee while driving)

Typically, your mid-bass goes in the door in the stock location, mid-range in the kick panel and then your tweet...wherever it sounds best. For my acura, it was in the stock location firing upwards at the windsheild. In my miata right now, its on axis in the a-pillar...

Re: what is better than dayton rs 3-way set? for same $

yeah, by running a 3-way set i'd be able to get a little mid-bass (the 6.5 or 7) in the poorly imaged stock door location, and get away with a much smaller kickpanel (don't want to lose too much room) with the more imaging crucial mid-range.

At least that was my thinking. I am not going to have time alignment or really any processing other than crossover and eq. with this system.

I plan on running the mid/tweet with a passive crossover powered by an art series ppi and the mids powered by an audiocontrol model 20 (actively crossed over relative to the mid/tweet)

Re: what is better than dayton rs 3-way set? for same $

yeah, it seemed to me that by running that 2" i'd be able to really save foot room in the car and get very good imaging. Sadly, i wn't be able to play around iwth the imaging very much though- no other location in this car will be available to me.

is there a much better 2" dome midrange that can be had for reasonable money?

is there a much better 6.5/7" midbass that can be had for reasonable money? (to use in a car door with no modifications)
